Also bought one of these amplifiers (or 'tv boosters') for the tv:argos.co.uk/sta…htmWith 21dB gain said on spec sheet, its the highest and cheapest gain i've found. works fine too. theres multiple ones if needed for a couple of £ extra.

p.s. bare in mind you need another (short?) cable from your wall socket to this booster. another tip is to place amplifier as close to aerial as possible to get the best reception! every meter counts if your getting bad signal. HTH

(excuse my english, its late)

Could you use this to extend the coax cable feeding a Virgin cable TV box or would the signal degrade too much?

Im not sure how strong/weak your signal is already so i dont know, but thats the purpose of these 10m gold plated cable ;-).
